Here is the recipe:
Ingredients: 4 large eggs 1 1/2 cups milk 3/4 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour 3 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions:
-Warm the eggs by placing them UN-CRACKED in a medium bowl and cover with hot water (as hot as your tap will go). Let them sit for 10 minutes.
-Preheat the oven to 450°F and move the oven rack to a low position (to prepare for huge popovers!). Grease the popover pan thoroughly inside each cup as well as around the top edges.
-With your whisk, beat together the eggs, milk and salt until they are combined. The yolks should be completely blended in.
-Add the flour and whisk until the mixture is frothy and all large lumps are gone. Then quickly stir in the melted butter.
-Divide the batter between the prepared popover cups. They should be about 3/4 of the way full.
-Bake the popovers for 20 minutes and then reduce the heat to 350°F. Bake for another 10 or 15 minutes. The popovers will be very golden brown.
*Do not top off the cups! ONE POUR to 3/4 full. Topping off can prevent a full rise.
- If you can help it DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN!
Serve immediately and enjoy them warm!
Thank you for this recipe! Just tried it out with one substitution - white whole-wheat instead of AP four. Not a great idea... I will have to try again sometime.
This is one of those super sensitive recipes. Even heavy footsteps can stop them from rising. If you find a flour alternative let me know.
